Sudden Impact

1983, dir Clint Eastwood w/Clint Eastwood, Sondra Locke, Pat Hingle, Bradford Dillman, Albert Popwell, 117 min, 35mm

A right-wing vigilante if ever there was one, Clint Eastwood’s “Dirty” Harry Callahan found his most successful vehicle yet (and his famous catchphrase) during the heyday of Reagan’s fearmongering. After yet another violent incident in San Francisco, Harry is sent out of town to investigate a murder and unwittingly falls for the perpetrator – a fellow vigilante on a mission of revenge against the men that raped her and her sister.

A "Double Feature" ticket additionally allows admission into the 9:30PM screening of ROBOCOP. No additional purchase is necessary.
